Tips For Stunning Food Presentation

Here are some useful tricks to make your food look just as great as it tastes.

Choose the Right Serving Dish

The right plate will work as a gorgeous backdrop for your food. Light-colored or white plates can make colorful food truly stand out.

Symmetry

Professional chefs have mastered the art of symmetry when it comes to plating a dish. It’s the secret to beautiful looking food.

Decorate With Herbs

Herbs and edible flowers not only add flavor to your dish, but they act as a colorful decoration as well. A little bit of citrus zest can also go a long way.

Clean Plates

While plating your meal, you may get a few drops of sauce or juice on the sides of your plate. Use a clean towel to wipe it away and make it seem as if the food just magically appeared on the plate.

Contrasting Colors

Use bright colors to catch the eye of your guest. No artificial coloring is needed; you can color your food using matcha, beets, turmeric and more.

Keep It Simple

Even though herbs can act as nice decorations, be careful not to overcrowd your plate with garnishes. Less is more!
